Uptown Westerville is a Place to Buy Local

August 13th is market day in Uptown Westerville!

And, this is Week 15 for the 2008 Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market season.

The Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market opens for business each Wednesday from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. through October 29th in the Church of the Messiah parking lot at N. State and E. Home.

The Westerville Uptown Merchants Association highly recommends making Wednesday an Uptown Westerville Market Day -- come uptown for lunch and shopping, then stop by the market.

Today's weather is perfect for market shopping with artisan foods and an amazing selection of organic, chemical-free, and conventionally grown produce.

Last week, market customers purchased nearly 1000 pounds of fresh peaches from Malabar Acres!

Home-made, home-grown, all-Ohio, the Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market features a variety of baked goods, spreads, chutneys, jams, cut flowers, meats, poultry, eggs, fruits, vegetables, coffee, sauces, rubs and dried herbs, honey, maple syrup, and fresh cheese.

Stroller friendly and pet friendly, the market is a great place to shop with friends and family, and to shake the hand of the person who grew your produce and made your bread.

See you at the Uptown Westerville Farmers' Market.
